Survey of Smallholder Dairy Cattle Farming System and Antibiotic Residues in Raw Cow's Milk in Bagamoyo District, Tanzania

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Smallholder dairy farmers in Tanzania face livestock disease challenges that drive imprudent antimicrobial use and fuel antimicrobial resistance (AMR). In Bagamoyo, poor husbandry and limited disease control result in high prevalence of vector‐borne infections, commonly treated with oxytetracycline (OTC).

Impact of pulmonary African trypanosomes on the immunology and function of the lung

Nature Communications, 2022
A number of human African trypanosomiasis, or sleeping sickness, patients suffer from respiratory symptoms commonly attributed to cardiac insufficiency. Here, the authors characterise the role of pulmonary Trypanosoma brucei in respiratory infection.

Identification of New Anti‐Trypanosoma brucei Leads: An Integrated CRK12‐Guided Virtual Screen With Experimental Validation

Chemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 108, Issue 3, September 2026.
An integrated computational‐experimental workflow enabled CRK12‐guided hit discovery against Trypanosoma brucei under limited structural and ligand data. The workflow of virtual screening and anti‐T. brucei bioassays identified 4 hit compounds, including three low‐micromolar leads (IC50 = 1.47, 0.81, and 1.33 μM). ABSTRACT Human African trypanosomiasis

Clinical management of East African trypanosomiasis in South Africa: Lessons learned

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2018
Background: East African trypanosomiasis is an uncommon, potentially lethal disease if not diagnosed and treated in a timely manner. South Africa, as a centre for emergency medical evacuations from much of sub-Saharan Africa, receives a high proportion ...

Bovines, buffers and barriers: A social scientific perspective on rewilding in the Kavango‐Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.
Rewilding is often summarized with the three C's of Carnivores, Cores and Corridors. In this essay we propose a complementary perspective that focuses on the three B's of Bovines, Buffers and Barriers. This complementary perspective draws attention to rewilding as a social (rather than only ecological) challenge and is illustrated with insights from ...

Human African trypanosomiasis in travellers to Kenya [PDF]

Eurosurveillance, 2012
In this issue, two cases are described of human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) due to Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense. They occurred recently in European tourists returning from Masai Mara area, Kenya, to Germany and Belgium, respectively [1,2]. These are, to our knowledge, the first two HAT cases described in travellers to Kenya in the last 12 years ...

Accelerating towards human African trypanosomiasis elimination: Issues and opportunities

Journal of Vector Borne Diseases, 2020
Human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) has been an alarming global public health issue. The disease affects mainly poor and marginalized people in low-resource settings and is caused by two subspecies of haemoflagellate parasite, Trypanosoma brucei and ...

Interplay Between Infectious Diseases and the Endocrine System: An Overview and Clinical Insights

Endocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 4, July 2026.
Infectious diseases can disrupt endocrine homeostasis through direct cytopathic injury, autoimmune dysregulation, or pathogen‐derived hormone‐like effects. Viruses and bacteria are the most frequent agents, whereas fungi and parasites contribute less commonly, even remaining clinically relevant, especially in the immunocompromised population.

Cow Milk Risk Factors Associated With Bacterial Contaminations Along Dairy Value Chain in Lushoto and Handeni Districts, Tanzania

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
Milk and milk products are important sources of nutrients to human and animals, but due to its physicochemical characteristics and nutritional value, it serves as an excellent medium for growth of microorganisms. Most of smallholder dairy farmers have no training on livestock husbandry and milk handling practices.
